Made by using light sensitive black and white paper which had been exposed to light, then in different orders applying stop, developer and fix for different amounts of time and in different ways. 

The most effective method I found was to paint on the stop first and then quickly add developer, thats when the purple occurred and the most marbled effects happened. Although, the developer, despite trying to keep it the fix and stop out of it, did get contaminated throughout. So I can’t be 100% sure that some fix or stop in the developer didn’t also add another reaction which made the paper react this way.
